ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Patientco,
the leading healthcare payments technology company that optimizes the
payment experience for providers and patients alike, announced today
enhanced integration between its dynamic patient payment platform and
Epic’s market-leading EHR technology. The integration provides robust
payment functionality, automated workflows, and payment processing
through Epic solutions, including MyChart. Patientco’s payment platform
can be deployed enterprise-wide to help health systems leverage their
investment in Epic and improve the patient payment experience, while
streamlining payment workflows for revenue cycle teams.

“Patientco’s simple integration with Epic is a big plus for our
organization,” said Keith Siddel, Vice President, Revenue Cycle at
Baptist Memorial Health Care in Memphis, Tenn. “By rolling out Patientco
in MyChart and across 21 facilities and a network of over 4,000
physicians, we are able to gain enterprise level reporting and
visibility through data analytics into all payments and ensure a
simplified payment experience for our patients.”

“As a long-time partner of Patientco, I’m thrilled that their payment
platform is now even more closely aligned with Epic,” said Mike Simms,
Vice President of Revenue Cycle at Cone Health. “We’ve seen such great
financial results through our partnership with Patientco, and the way
their statements and payment features exchange data natively with Epic
makes our workflow that much more efficient.”

“Our clients spend a lot of time and money investing in an EHR that’s
right for their organization, and our integration with Epic helps them
further leverage that investment by easily connecting them to our
payment platform,” said Bird Blitch, CEO at Patientco. “It’s our goal to
give health systems the best tools to improve collections by engaging
the patient in a better payment experience.”

empowers enterprise health systems and revenue cycle vendors to

and more payments. Patientco goes beyond basic payment processing to
